Gunderloch `Redstone` Riesling from Rheinhessen, Germany, is a distinctive White still wine crafted from Riesling grapes, reflecting the unique red soils of Roter Hang. This organic certified wine undergoes 24-48 hours of skin contact, followed by fermentation in a combination of used oak barrels and cement eggs, showcasing a low-intervention approach to enhance site expression. It presents a broad, intensely flavoured palate with captivating notes of wild herbs, fresh fennel, and zesty lemon pith, culminating in a long, saline finish. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with poultry, pork, or spicy dishes, and is a testament to Gunderloch's commitment to quality.

Vinification

The ‘Roter Hang’ Riesling undergoes 24-48 hours of skin contact prior to fermentation, which takes place in a combination of used, 600L-1200L oak barrels and 1200L cement eggs. In the solar-powered winery, Johannes takes a low-intervention approach to enhance site expression. The ‘pied de cuve’ is cultivated in both the vineyard and cellar, and skin maceration is utilised, with ageing in old oak and cement eggs (particularly on the Grosses Gewächs wines), to bring out the natural phenolics of the fruit.
